Silverstone has rivaled the likes of Lian Li, Antec, and others in quality, craftsmanship, and overall style for several years now and their newest case to the Sugo family called the SG07 continues to add more options for the mini ITX platform. This case's claim to fame is definitely its ability to hold up to a 12.2" graphics card! The only card on the market with those dimensions is the AMD Radeon HD 5970. This is a huge improvement over other similar cases and should give gamers looking for a flexible mini ITX case just what they need for LAN parties and other gaming events.

The SG07 is by far the largest mini ITX case that Silverstone has every developed. They also made several key revisions to include a large 180mm exhaust fan as well as adding a single-rail 600W power supply with a 80 PLUS Bronze certification. There are other key features like ample space for a good-size heatsink and support for two solid state drives and one 3.5" hard drive. These options give every gamer the flexibility they need to run two SSDs in RAID 0 and also add a secondary 3.5" hard drive to store movies, music, files, and other data.

This case and power supply combo is currently priced at $209.99 without a window and $219.99 without a clear side window on Newegg. Paying more than $200 for any mini ITX case might raise a few eyebrows, but the inclusion of a highly-capable 600w power supply certainly makes this case more of a bargain that some might think. The chassis is built from a combination of aluminum and steel and the frame includes the same matte black finish as the exterior paneling. Let's move on to the case's technical specifications and also dive into the specs of the included 600w PSU.
